crisdafish Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 I only picked her up the week before last so won't get launched until next spring. I'll miss my old Reiver, it's done me well over the last 28 years Scotch_Egg2012, Andy135, jonnyswamp and 1 other 4 Quote
Andy135 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Very nice looking rig. Good purchase. You must be very pleased and somewhat frustrated at having to wait so long to get her bum wet? Quote
Saintly Fish Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Very nice boat, good to see the yellow vest wrapped around the outboard leg. Safety first ! I hope you managed to stop the bloke trying to steel your car though Quote
Dicky Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Why wait till the spring, plenty of fish to catch now. Nice boat by the way Quote
Geoff Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 A very nice looking set up. Do you use the trailer to visit various different locations? Geoff.❤️ Quote
crisdafish Posted October 21, 2020 Author Posted October 21, 2020 Thanks for the replies, the boat is in SW Scotland now, the winter fishing up there isn't great. Also, my insurance covers 6 months on the mooring and 6 months ashore. 7 minutes ago, Geoff said: A very nice looking set up. Do you use the trailer to visit various different locations? Geoff.❤️ No, I won't be trailing the boat, other than from storage to mooring. Towing a boat that size with my car is OK on normal roads but I wouldn't like to do too many launch and recoveries without a 4x4 Geoff 1 Quote

OrkneyCorkney Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 Really nice looking boat, I do like Orkney’s. Is she a handful to tow weight wise? Nearly launch time, no doubt you’ve been adding toys over the winter. Quote
